How can i add a context menu to an edit control?
I try to handle WM_RBUTTONDOWN in the main window, but don't work if the mouse click is on the edit control.

You have to subclass the Edit Control, see, for instance Create your own controls - the art of subclassing[^].
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

I'm not using MFC.
So i've to call SetWindowSubclass function and set my own EditProc in which handle WM_CONTEXTMENU?

Yes.

As an alternative to the mentioned subclassing, it is also possible to handle WM_RBUTTONDOWN directly in your dialogs message loop:
HWND hwndDlg = CreateDialog(...);
MSG msg;
while(GetMessage(&msg,0,0,0)){
if(msg.hwnd == GetDlgItem(hwndDlg,ID_MYEDITCONTROL) && msg.message == WM_RBUTTONDOWN)
;
else{
TranslateMessage(&msg);
DispatchMessage(&msg);
}
}

Hi All,
I have a doubt.
PostMessage() will post the message and returns immediately won't wait for Message to complete.
where as SendMessage() will post the message and will not return till the message is completed.
My doubt is why we have to wait in SendMessage() till the message is completed.
Can any body can clarify my doubt?

Sometimes we need to know the retult of the message and using the return value or wparam or lparam of the message.
Take WM_GETTEXT as an example.
Only after the destination window processed this messasge and filled the lparam with it's text,can our program do something accordingly.
In such case we must use SendMessage.

SendMessage() is a synchronous call, meaning it waits for the code and result of the operation (framework equivalent of making a blocking function call), whereas PostMessage() is asynchronous, meaning there's no waiting for result.
Where is either useful?
-SendMessage(): Your continuation of execution depends on the result of the operation and/or the CWnd's lie in the same thread (blocking calls are a non-issue).
-PostMessage(): Non-blocking is essential, such is the case for threaded programming.

From MSDN page for WM_ACTIVATETOPLEVEL
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xkd95027(VS.80).aspx
I got the below description:
This message is similar in use to WM_ACTIVATEAPP, but works in situations where windows belonging to different processes are mixed in a single window hierarchy (common in OLE applications).
Does anybody know where is a example/demo/document available that illustrate "windows belonging to different processes are mixed in a single window hierarchy"?
I googled but found almost nothing.
Thanks!

Since they mention OLE, you could start there perhaps...

Thanks!
I think I got the basic idea.
Just like embeded MS Word into your_app, the embeded MSWord view window is a chid window of your_app.exe but it's essentially relaies on a external process WinWord.exe

i registed my message on DlgMain WM_PK_MESSAGE by RegisterWindowMessage
and i have a DLL..have InjectDLL Function callback to a wndproc
i want my DLL get WM_PK_MESSAGE..
can you have some ideas for me 
tk so much

Hi,
In each process you using the registered message, you should first call
WM_PK_MESSAGE = RegisterWindowMessage
and then you can use the WM_PK_MESSAGE.
|
|
|
|
|
You also need to use the ON_REGISTERED_MESSAGE macro instead of the normal ON_MESSAGE e.g.
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMyWnd, CWnd)
ON_REGISTERED_MESSAGE(m_nRegMsg, OnRegisteredMessage)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

Hi,
I got a ball hitting a paddle and I want it's X velocity to increase/decrease depending on where it hits the paddle. The code below works with whole numbers but not for numbers like "0.67" or "2.45". I'm looking for a way to animate objects moving at smaller increments for better precision. Thanks.
int speed=Ball_List[b]->speed;
int paddle_center = Player->Location.X + Player->Width / 2;
int ball_center = Ball_List[b]->gameBall->Location.X + Ball_List[b]->gameBall->Width / 2;
int paddle_location = ball_center - paddle_center;
double a=(90-paddle_location);
double angle = (Math::PI / 180) * a;
Ball_List[b]->xVel = speed*Math::Cos(angle);
Ball_List[b]->yVel = -speed*Math::Sin(angle);
Ball_List[b]->gameBall->Location = Point(Ball_List[b]->gameBall->Location.X + Ball_List[b]->xVel, Ball_List[b]->gameBall->Location.Y + Ball_List[b]->yVel);
[/code]

Can you tell us what doesn't work when you use non-integers. And non-integers for what?
|

I tried using doubles but for a value like 0.6 the ball doesn't move at all. The box control takes doubles but will round them down to the nearest integer. Is there a way to do this over the course of X number of frames?
I'm using non-integers for the box control's position. Right now there's only about 6 different directions the ball takes when hitting the paddle. I need finer control over the speed of the ball.
This problem happens with any sort of animation I try to do. What if I wanted smooth acceleration of a game object? This wouldn't be possible with the problem I'm encountering.

Ah, okay gotcha.
Well, in that case you can use floats or doubles for the position and the velocity. It's just a matter of rounding the position to an int before using it to display the ball.
Or of course, you could keep an integer position of last impact, along with an integer number of frames since it occured and a double velocity, or position increment per frame. Each time you display, just show the ball at [impact.x + frames*velocity.x, impact.y + frames*velocity.y]
But the easier is to just keep the position and velocity as doubles, converting to an int when using for display purposes. (You might also have to add code that will check if the ball is within a threshold distance, since non-integers will mean your ball wont hit the walls or paddle 'exactly' - well not at the exact moment of a frame, anyway.

I'm not sure I understand. Do you understand what I'm trying to do? after the ball hits the paddle it should move left/right depending on how far from the center it is. Just need finer precision on the angle(xvel) of the ball. Thanks.
I tried something like this. I took a number like 1.65 and did
1.65 - Math::Floor(1.65) to get just the decimal part of the number 0.65.Then every frame I added 0.65 to 0.65 and checked if it was >= 1. If it was I added 1.0 to the left/right property of the box. I then repeated that.
The problem with it was I wasn't encounting for the speed of the ball. If the speed of the ball is 6 it moves 6 frames every timer tick. The code I was trying only moved 1 pixel at a time.
I'm just not sure on the math to incorporate the speed into it.
